Traditional wooden Japanese bathtubs are used for soaking rather than washing as in the European bathing tradition. We create a contemporary wet room version of a Japanese bathroom using Cedar of Lebanon for the tub and the duck boarding on the floor and installing a shower for washing prior to soaking. Cedar of Lebanon is a very aromatic timber, and filling the tub with warm water scents the bathroom. The scent from the timber lasts for many years.
